This blog post will detail how to generate promo codes for your apps. After completing this post you’ll be able to generate promo codes to hand out to reviewers, as give aways, or to friends and family.
Login to iTunes Connect
The first step is to login to iTunes Connect with your apple username and password.
This will bring you to the iTunes Connect Dashboard. The next step is to click on the Manager Your Applications link.
Select the App to Change
You’ll now be on the App Selection screen. From here choose the application that you’d like to update.
From the Application Detail screen click on the View Details button for the current version of your app.
Next click on the big blue promo codes button.
You’ll next be presented with a screen that asks you to enter the number of promo codes you’d like to download. Because the promo codes expire, only enter the number of codes you currently need, then click continue.
The next step is to agree to Apple’s terms of service. Read these and make sure you’re using your promo codes for the correct reasons!
Following that you’ll be presented with a big download button. Click that and your promo codes will be downloaded in a text file. The contents of the text file are a simple list of promo codes. 1 promo code per line.
And that’s it. Share and enjoy! Remember though that promo codes only apply to apps with a purchase price, you can’t use promo codes for in app purchases.
